Hi folks,

We are flying into fall.

The Tub Parade was a fabulous success--thanks to all who make this happen--drivers , sponsors, and volunteers: Stanley, Laurie , April, Carl and Marilee, Jennifer and Wayne, Tim, Pat, Rikkie, and our wonderful announcer and historian Jeff Morse.

In addition to our Tubs we had a high-wheel bicyclist--which was a big hit--and 3 vintage automobiles.

Our next meeting will be Wednesday, September 18th @6:30 and will be pot luck. Our agenda focus will be to discuss the upcoming programs for next year. Hope to see you there.

See attached minutes from our last meeting.

See you all on Wednesday the 18th.

Maureen

Next Event: *** Sunday, October 13 10:00 AM ***

Minutes from CCDS Meeting August 21

Despite thunder and lightning, the sun came out and we had a great pot luck and meeting.

Maureen called the meeting to order at 7:30. Harvey was away.

The minutes from the last meeting, July 18th, were emailed to the members and approved unanimously.

HORSE SHOW - Mary Waller stood and thanked everyone for making this such a phenomenal show. She and Harvey have received phone calls, congratulations and more naming this a fabulous and best show in the country. A harness maker in Wisconsin, and others from all over have told her that this was the most beautiful, organized and most prestigious show in the US. Photographers said that the Orleton property is so vast and so beautiful that in every direction every photo turns out beautiful. The rolling fields accommodated all this activity without any stress or confusion. Next year we may just be swamped!
